Server Hosting Support

[Fortune]

Me and my buds are trying to host a server, no guarantees on how long it will be up or how active admins will be, but we have some issues.

Our main problem is with setting the amount of bots voteable.

Code

set_num_bots_voteable 200

This command doesn't work with any number above 50...
Not setting it gives allows people to vote for up to 750 bots PER team, which would kill the server if abused.

Code

max_num_bots 200

This does nothing of note.

I'd like to make it so is not possible to vote bots into the first team, but allow up to 200 bots in the second team.

Is there a way to set custom costs for the build menu?
I'd like to use it to reduce plank spam and get rid of the earthwork, as it is generally only used to glitch.

this mod can do its own things, but if its using the same or similar code as NW....

the code limits it to 50 which is why 200 doesn't work. 
about being able to to set it to 750 per team.  sounds like a possible bug.    i wasn't able to recreate it.  might be a issue with the mod?  is there not an initialized value at the start of the scripts file setting the voteable bot number to 50 in this mod?

glancing at the present file, that command is for commander battle.  sounds like you are doing something other than commander battle, so the command wouldn't work.

some of the stuff you are asking for would need to be client and server side i believe, others can be worked around with a server side only change.
